Recommended dance music for kids: Irresistible kids' dance tracks (31–40)
Crazy F-R-E-S-H BeatSnow Man
If you’re looking for a sharp, cool dance track, this is the one.
It’s a song by Snow Man, a popular idol group from Johnny & Associates, included on their double A-side single with SixTONES, “D.D.
/ Imitation Rain,” released in 2020.
It’s an energetic electronic tune where the rhythmic sound and snappy melody line fit perfectly and really get you moving.
When choosing a song for kids to dance to, we tend to pick something cute, but I think a cool track like this is great as well.
Wanna dance?Suzuki Rio
It’s a pop tune bursting with energy that sings, “If we all dance together, we can be happy!” The song is by Rio Suzuki, who is also active as an actress and TV personality, and it was released as a single in 2016.
It’s as catchy as can be, and just that is enough to lift your spirits.
If you’re feeling down or burdened with worries and anxieties, listening to it will surely help.
Don’t worry about the choreography—just move your body all out, up and down, and dance your heart out!
cherry (sweet cherry; cherry fruit)Otsuka Ai
This is a dance track by Ai Otsuka, whose girly sound and uplifting, catchy melody line create a bright and cute vibe.
The song is popular with both kids and adults and is often danced to.
When a group of girls dances to it, their performance alone feels charming and exciting.
Tattayuzu
This is Yuzu’s dance number “Tatta.” It was chosen as the 2017 theme song for “Mecha-Mecha Iketeru!” and became popular for the “Tatta Dance” choreographed by world-renowned dancer Kent Mori.
In the official music video, elementary school students also perform the Tatta Dance.
There are various choreography videos available, so if you’re not confident in dancing, start by practicing a simple routine.
Just learning the rhythm and song structure will make it easier to master the Tatta Dance.
R.Y.U.S.E.I.Sandaime Jē Sōru Burazāzu fromu Eguzairu Toraibu
How about the dance for this song, which caused quite a buzz on social media at the time? The choreography itself is made up of authentic dance moves and is a bit challenging, but if your kids can dance, definitely let them give it a try! Also, the Running Man—synonymous with this song—is actually a basic hip-hop move! It’s a step you can use in other routines too, so take this opportunity to master it.

Cinderella GirlKing&Prince
This is the debut single of King & Prince, who debuted in 2018.
It was used as the theme song for the drama ‘Hana Nochi Hare: Hanadan Next Season,’ starring Hana Sugisaki and featuring group member Sho Hirano.
The song evokes the image of a prince by a princess’s side, perfectly fitting the group name King & Prince.
The choreography isn’t too difficult, so try becoming “Kinpuri” with your friends and dance along.
Cutie HoneyKōda Kumi
It’s not often that anime songs get covered with added dance routines, is it? Since they’re anime songs, I think they’re originally made to appeal to children as well, but adding dance makes them even more fun.
One such song is Kumi Koda’s cover of ‘Cutie Honey’! With its blend of cuteness and sexiness, it seems like even elementary school–age girls could dance to it and look cool.
The choreography isn’t exactly very difficult, but make sure you nail the finer techniques.
